Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Cultural Writing. Includes interviews with Jello Biafra, Black Flag, Noam Chomsky, and Steve Albini, among others. PUNK PLANET is indespensible reading for anyone and everyone who is at all interested in vital music that has yet to be co-opted, commodified, or covered to death in the mainstream press. Passionate music writing for the right reasons — Jim DeRogatis, Chicago Sun-Times/ author of Let it Blurt: The Life and Times of Lester Bangs. In principle, the idea doesn't seem that outrageous: Why not create a magazine about music and politics that doesn't have its hands tied behind its back from the start, freed from the shallowness and trend mandates of official media, the insularity and disciplinary bifurcations of academia, and the ideological blinkers that held back Maximum Rock n Roll? Simple, right? So try thinking of anyone but PUNK PLANET who's pulled it off — Eric Weisbard, Village Voice. Synopsis:The first compilation of the riveting and provocative interviews of Punk Planet magazine, founded in 1994 and charging unbowed into the new millenium. Never lapsing into hapless nostalgia, these conversations with figures as diverse as Jello Biafra, Kathleen Hanna, Henry Rollins, Sleater-Kinney, Excene, and many more provide a unique perspective into American punk rock and all that it has inspired (and confounded). Punk Planet has explored the crossover of punk with activism, and reflects the currents of the underground while simultaneously challenging the bleak centerism of today's popular American culture. About the AuthorDaniel Sinker has been the editor and publisher of Punk Planet magazine for 12 years. He was the editor of 2001's We Owe You Nothing: Punk Planet, the collected interviews, and the founding editor of the Punk Planet Books line. He is an adjunct faculty member in the journalism department at Columbia College, Chicago. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
